The influence of the development of urban e-commerce on the labor demand of enterprises
How to promote the synergy between the application of digital economy and e-commerce technology and the goal of stable employment is the key to achieving common prosperity in high-quality development.This pa-per takes China's A-share manufacturing industry and related listed companies from 2007 to 2020 as research samples,takes the construction of national e-commerce demonstration cities as exogenous impact,and uses progres-sive dual differential method to assess the impact of urban e-commerce development on the labor demand of enter-prises and its mechanism.It is found that the construction of national e-commerce demonstration cities not only sig-nificantly improves the scale of enterprise labor demand in general,but also affects the restructuring of enterprise la-bor demand.The study of the influence mechanism shows that the construction of e-commerce demonstration cities promotes the increase of the scale of enterprise labor demand by improving the market size and production efficien-cy of enterprises and easing financing constraints.Heterogeneity analysis shows that the impact of e-commerce dem-onstration city construction on labor demand is significantly different in enterprises of different ownership,enterpris-es of different operation scales and enterprises of different geographical locations.
